Hi All,

I have a few cpu miners running claymore (monero) and a CPU /GPU rig running both claymore CPU (monero) and dual coin GPU miner (Eth and Dcr).

I am looking at building a more GPU based rig. I have a decent chassis (old rack mount DVR) with an Asus P8Z77-V LX2 Board. This board has:
1 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (blue) *1
1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (x4 mode, black)
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1
2 x PCI

i5 cpu (cant remember the exact model)

akasa venom 750w psu

Hdd can be any, I have both plate and ssd available so will probably go with a 120 gb ssd

I think this should take at least 3 decent cards.

I have 4 chassis cooling fans built in 1 cpu and GPU's will have their own.

Any recommendations on cards for this config?

Power is essentially free so not a huge issue.

Cheers
